Well done! Thanks for saving this old gas dually. A lot of people disregard these trucks because they aren't diesel. Awesome video, thanks for sharing.
I love those trucks, I’ve always wanted a crew cab with the 8 foot bed it’s my dream truck. I know that’s asking for too much but hopefully one day I’ll find it. She’s looking good, you have a jewel of a truck. 🎉
Have a 85 s/c gmc 1T with 67k 4wd bb auto. Liken the way ur rig turned out, gorgeous AF! May mimic ur suspension mods and solid body color, mine is 2 tone dark brn/cream…Thanks for the great video 👍🇺🇸🦅
If your dump started life as a cab & Chassis , the frame is about 5" too long for an 8' bed, and the rearend is too narrow, the duel wheels will actually fit under the stock fender wells. Re-think before you start any disassembly to try to achieve something that looks like this. It would be much easier to start with this and put your DANA 60 and transfer case under one of these. Quicker too!
Can someone help me lol!!! I’m buying a 1976 c30 dually from my uncle, and I’m trying to figure out what parts I should put in for 3 reasons : Preventive maintenance, make it run better, and make it sound better. I just don’t know what upgrades I should do and what specific parts I should use! Please help!

C10 and c30 shackles are different. I replaced mine and went to a guy that makes them custom instead of the stamped ones. If you want the stamped ones ATS suspension has them.
Found them on ebay. www.ebay.com/itm/304824588731?hash=item46f8f619bb:g:UMoAAOSw7mdkaAyP&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0EnN8i9m8N0MihYBtNF2SX%2Bg%2FgH%2F89hlqX1HIzIvxdr3VP6q5PVVYz9dgNKaxsY0meRyUIwVh1oUQMSS8p0oqafSVJGlmcM9XCzP5IVTcnk%2FDIvdwdlHY8NmZbjkZXiJ3CwdsvvOE8bUBhn1sNtG3YOhlPYBEtR%2BMEtEfeOUcWKiIOiqtd%2Bo%2FLcr%2B1Q1SsXVXvYcqH95%2FF8%2BU8Dq8YFv0c%2FPUYq50ot7QZBOH8eKONCFa6Hl7gZt215RjwN%2Fir00O0cBp4IO%2BtzbxjFUvXC%2FaHw%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR4T7rfiUYg
"Tow pig" more like a shop truck. Only 1 fuel tank, said you towed a picnic table. Why air bags with bumper pull? It make zero sense since your steer tires will have less weight on them once you air up.
No, not with airbags on the rear only. Once aired up it changes the center of gravity and puts downward force on the steer (front) tires. Both of my diesel trucks have rear airbags and it helps a lot. Sorry buddy but you're wrong on this.

That truck will never pass a gas station.🤣 I left both tanks on my 1980 GMC one ton with the 454. Yep, my truck loves gas stations........
@@ironcladranchandforge7292 for sure
Super clean! Just needs a toolbox in the bed and its lit! Hopefully you have a parts list in the description
Sorry I don’t but thank you for viewing!
Great looking truck! Have an 83 myself and kept the dual tanks. Couldn't see the sense in giving up the range
I didn’t have the money to replace both haha
@countylinechaos4043 still an awesome truck. Nice to see it kept as a driver
@@luckyduck6921 thank you!
You’ll be picking up so many grandpas in that

Nice rig! One of my biggest automotive regrets is selling a minty C30 dually. Hope to have one again someday
Thank you, and thank you for viewing!

This is my dream truck as well I have a 89 c30 with a 454 that is currently a dump truck that I plan on converting
i love it!
If your dump started life as a cab & Chassis , the frame is about 5" too long for an 8' bed, and the rearend is too narrow, the duel wheels will actually fit under the stock fender wells.

Wow this is awesome 👌
Thank you
Sound like alot of money 💰
Wow, a 1 ton that can only drive over Ant Hills. So much for that off grid cab over camper.
Huh? English?

I just saved a red version of that recently.
Thats awesome!
Would this dully be considered a long bed??.
I have a 86 c10 long bed and wanted to make it a dully. Not sure if the bed is the same.
yes its an 8 foot bed
@countylinechaos4043 😈.... got a new project coming up...
P.s. Thank you for the reply 👍🏽
I have a 85 red c30 and love my gasser
Very awesome trucks! Share with your buddies!
Would it possible to get company you got lowering kit and air bag kit from. Tks

I wish that was my daily its 👌
Thank you! I miss this truck!!
Great job man. What mufflers are those I can’t find them anywhere
Thank you! They are magnaflow race series. Here’s the link. www.ebay.com/itm/266404392641?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=T4xmv1ClR_m&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=YMh9zHhVQRa&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
What did you put on the frame? POR 15? Nice job!
Chassis saver satin black paint! It’s a type of POR. THANK YOU!
Very nice truck..!! The rear shackles are the same for the c10 or did you buy them specially for the c30?
C10 and c30 shackles are different. I replaced mine and went to a guy that makes them custom instead of the stamped ones. If you want the stamped ones ATS suspension has them.
Where did you get the 2/4 drop from and bags?
Drop kit is from western chassis, and the bags are air lift air bags I got them on ebay
I only buy chevy 3500 single cab, SRW, 4x4, Diesel
where did u get the bags and springs from?
Springs are from rock auto and air bags are air light 5000 bags
I noticed (or maybe couldn't tell) that you didnt C-notch the chassis.. Curious as to why (if you didnt)
The 4” drop kit didn’t require the notch. Don’t have to notch until a 6” drop I believe.
What size wheels and tires ?
225 65 16 i belive
For sale or a keeper, truck at end?
for sale
I have cateye wrecker 89 454 for sale cheap
Wheels????

Back when trucks looked like trucks. I can't say much of today's abominations.
agreed!
Should have kept the steps
Not a fan personally.
